You mentioned that Emma loves Regina's tummy because it's so soft. I was wondering if Regina ever gets self-conscious about her body, and how Emma would respond to her if she did.
Emma could always tell when Reginaâs period was approaching.Â
It would always begin on a Sunday evening when lazy kissing would inevitably turn into something a little more intimate. Emma would quickly strip whatever light clothing she had on, and where Regina would normally do the same, on these occasions thereâd be a pause.Â
Before sheâd lean over to her bedside table and click off her lamp, and ask Emma to do the same.Â
The first few times Regina did this, Emma was confused. They were a firmly âsex with the lights onâ kind of couple, Emma loved seeing her Mommy in all her glory. From the way Reginaâs breasts bounced when she was plowing into her to the faces sheâd make when she climaxed, the blonde was obsessed.Â
So, of course, it was disconcerting to have sex in total darkness where she could only feel her way around for her Mama. Emma didnât question it at first, but would come to recognise it as the first sign of a pattern of behaviour that would follow for the rest of the week.Â
Reginaâs PMS symptoms verged on PMDD, and the focal point of her anxiety was always her body. Growing up in the early 2000s harmed Reginaâs sense of her own body image for years. Whilst she had never been overweight and had come to mostly accept and love her body over the years, her premenstrual hormones would reignite her teenage body dysmorphia.Â
It didnât help that Emma was naturally slim. Destined to be skeletal without a carefully curated diet, her body not yet showing the signs of age and maturity that Reginaâs was. Of course, Regina logically knew she shouldnât be comparing herself to her baby girl, who was twelve years her junior. It was easier said than done, though, when Regina saw her girlfriend prance around the bedroom with her perky tits and tight little abdominals whilst she felt heavy and bovine.Â
Sex with the lights off would be the start. It would be soon followed by extra early morning cardio sessions, which would steal Emmaâs Mommy away from her in the mornings. Then came the tiny dinners, which would consist of salad and some chicken, but not much else. Mommy seemed permanently clothed around Emma, the girl couldnât even catch a glimpse of skin when Regina was on the way to the shower.Â
Eventually, Emma would feel so bad that Regina was feeling uncomfortable in her body that she knew she needed to give her Mommy some kind words to bring her back to reality.Â
One night, as they sat quietly watching Homeland, Emma turned to her Mommy - who was using her fork to silently destroy the slice of cheesecake they were âsharingâ as a dessert, instead of actually eating it. Â
Regina could sense big green eyes staring into the side of her face.Â
âYou know I think youâre perfect, right?âÂ
Deflecting the comment immediately, Regina just smiled and pecked Emmaâs cheek.Â
âNot as perfect as you, my little munchkin.âÂ
The young blonde, who was a master at diverting conversations from serious topics, recognised her Mommyâs game.Â
âNo, Mommy. Iâm serious,â Emmaâs face hardened slightly.Â
Reginaâs smile dropped.
âYou didnât eat any pasta tonight, and your salad didnât look filling at all,â the girl said plainly before looking down at the mess on the plate between them. âYouâve also mashed this cheesecake to a pulp instead of eating any of it.âÂ
Mommy sighed, her hand releasing the fork and self-consciously coming to rub her stomach.Â
âIâve put on weightâŚâ
Emma shook her head. âYou havenât, Mommy. You just think that because your PMS makes you hate yourself.âÂ
The older womanâs bottom lip trembled slightly and she sniffled back her upset. Emmaâs arms opened immediately for Mommy, and Regina dove straight in for a cuddle, tears welling in her eyes. Emma held her Mommy for a while, resting her chin atop her head as Regina snuggled into her chest.Â
âThis whole week my negative thoughts have just been on a constant loop, I just feel so gross,â Regina admitted, and then in a quieter voice, added. âEspecially in comparison to youâŚâÂ
âIn comparison to me?â the girl questioned, her head tilted in confusion.Â
âI just look at you when you come out of the shower or when youâre getting changed. You look like a model and I just feel like someâŚflabby old woman that youâre settling with.âÂ
âWoah woah woah, chill out, Mommy. Donât call yourself that,â Emma sounded insulted on Reginaâs behalf. âThatâs my girlfriend youâre talking about.âÂ
A reassuring kiss found the crown of Reginaâs head.Â
âYouâre the most beautiful woman Iâve ever met,â Emma whispered. âI daydream about you when weâre apartâŚâ
âYou do?â Regina sounded strangely surprised.Â
âOf course I do,â Emma shook her head as if it was obvious. âI think about your neck a lot.âÂ
âMy neck?â Regina laughed.Â
Your neck. Specifically thisâŚâ Emma ran her fingers up the side of Mommyâs throat. âVein right here that gets all juicy and engorged when you are fucking me.âÂ
âI just want to sink my teeth into it but I donât want to kill you,â the girl admitted with a chuckle. âBut I donât think about your neck as much as I think about theseâŚâÂ
A hand came to gently cup around Mommyâs breast, heavy and sitting slightly lower due to her premenstrual hormones. Emmaâs thumb grazed softly over the thick nipple that sat beneath the fabric of her top. Regina hissed quietly as it hardened under Emmaâs caress before Emmaâs hand moved further south.Â
Regina felt a hand cradle her soft tummy, which felt bloated despite her small dinner. Nimble fingers kneaded the flesh softly, which made the older woman self-conscious momentarily until Emma continued her encouraging monologue.Â
âThis is my favourite part of you. Your arms and thighs are all muscle but thisâŚis so fucking sexy and womanly.âÂ
The heavy breathing that tickled Reginaâs ear informed her that her little one was getting aroused just touching her, and remembering what lay beneath her clothes. Despite her feelings of inadequacy, it was difficult not to feel absolutely desired as Emma touched and spoke to her.Â
âYouâre healthy, and your body is beautiful, Mommy,â Emma said, with an air of finality. âYou donât need to lose weight, and even if you put some on, youâll still look like the hottest woman to ever have existed. Probably even hotter.âÂ
The older womanâs head tilted back so she could meet Emmaâs eyes, and found that Emma was already looking down at her, assessing how she was reacting to the words she was spouting.Â
âI guess I canât argue with that, princess.â
âNo, you canât,â Emma replied, a small triumphant smile forming on her face. âNow, Iâm gonna heat up the leftover pasta and youâre gonna eat it all. With extra foccacia.âÂ
With a relieved breath, Regina admitted.Â
âIâm so hungry.âÂ
"I know you are, Mommy,â Emma confirmed with another kiss on Reginaâs head. âAnd then after you're done I think Iâm going to show you just how much I love your bodyâŚâ
